Illustration Friday has a challenge every week. This week is Homage. This is Homage to my sweet sweet kitty, Freckles, as he was passing from this earth to the other side … and celebrating him!! I had some bubblescape ideas but they just didn’t fly. Illustration Friday is a great way to showcase your work and a wonderful opportunity to meet lots of wonderful people! I encourage you to check it out! Lots of fun people and paintings!

Homage

Homage can

Come from Love

As for this

Little kitty

My beloved little kitty

Who is

Getting celebrated

As he arrives

At the Other Side.

Homage can come from

Respect

As with the

Dalai Lama

Beloved, honored and respected.

Homage can come from

Imbalance

Such as

False Idols,

Putting someone on a

Pedestal

and other such

Not Worthy Ideas.

But Homage,

Respectful and loving,

That kind of Homage,

Is wonderful and

Gracious

Delightful and

Uplifting

Homage.
